It is natural to wonder about Baba's presence after he left his physical form. Chapter 43 offers profound reassurance on this matter. It explains that saints like Sai Baba are the personification of Brahman and appear for the welfare of devotees. When their task is complete, they merge into the unmanifest but do not cease to exist. Baba is described as being firmly imprinted in the hearts of his followers, and even in his unmanifest state, he enjoys his true self and 'always keeps the devotees awake.' The text emphasizes that he fills the entire moving and non-moving world and that one's experience of his presence depends on the feeling in their own mind, confirming he remains an unbroken, endless protector.
If Baba has left his physical body, how can he still be present and help devotees?
